Put your voice, acting, and interpretive ability to work with personalized coaching from one of the industry’s most skilled and experienced coaches.
Achieving success as a voice-over artist requires a significant amount of dedication and hard work. Having a beautiful voice is just one part of the equation. It’s crucial to continuously improve your skills and be receptive to feedback from industry professionals.
Even though beginner workshops and online training programs are available, they may not be the most effective way for beginners to develop their voice-over skills. These programs can be more beneficial for refining existing techniques, rather than building a solid foundation from scratch.
In addition, market research is essential in the voice-over industry. Without a thorough understanding of the market and competition, it can be challenging to stand out and secure high-paying jobs. Moreover, mastering acting, timing, pacing, breathing, inflection, and reading comprehension are all crucial to achieving success as a voice-over artist.
It’s essential to understand that becoming a top voice-over artist takes time and patience. There are no shortcuts in this industry, and beginners may experience frustration. Nevertheless, with dedication and perseverance, it’s possible to make a good living as a voice-over artist.
I offer a personalized approach to voice-over instruction that begins with a comprehensive two-hour evaluation.

Based on this evaluation, I will create a customized course of one-on-one instruction with extensive voice-over lessons. This is a crucial investment in your voice-over career that will help you achieve your full potential.
Rather than offering all-inclusive packages, I believe that one-on-one or small group instruction is the most effective way to ensure individual progress. That’s why I only offer one-on-one instruction, where we can focus on your specific needs and goals. As you make progress, we will decide when it’s the right time to create your demo.
